GAINES Vs, BROCKERHOFF.—The.
supreme Court last week made the long
looked for decision in the Gaines and
Brockerhoff case. The decision of Judge
Krebs, of Clearfield, was affirmed. The
following is the record of the case :
Isaac Gainesvs. Margaret Brockerhoff,
widow ; Andrew J. Brockerhoff, Henry
‘W. Brockerhoff, Mary C. Brockerhoff,
heirs; and Margaret Brockerhoff and
Andrew J. Brockerhoff, Administrators
of Henry Brockerhoff, deceased. Bill
in Equity praying the court that de-
fendants be restrained by injunction
from selling certain lands in Burnside
township, Centre county, and Bradford
township, Clearfield county, in all five
tracts, and requiring defendants to
make and deliver to plaintiff good and
sufficient deeds for same. In June,1884,
Joseph W. Parker, Esq., was appoint-
ed Master and Examiner in the case
by the Court. In February, 1884, Mas-
ter’s report was filed in favor of de-
fendants. June 12, 1888, exceptions
to Master’s report were filed by plaintiff
and argued before Judge Krebs, August
9th, 1888. Judge Krebs filed his da
cree, in substance as follows: That on
or before 30 days defendants deliver a
good and sufficient deed for certain
tracts of land in Bradford township,
Clearfield county, containing 25 acres-
Also one-half of certain tract in Burn-
side township, Centre county, contain-
ing 388 acres. Also another piece in
Burnside township, Centre county, con-
taining 396 acres. And that defend-
ants pay or cause to be paid to Isaac
Gaines the sum of $602.82, with inter-
est from June Ist, 1888, together with
complainant’s legal and reasonable costs,
printing of bill and amendments, and
costs of subpoenaing witnesses, Master's
fees,&c. The defendants took an appeal
from the decree August 26th, 1888, and
carried the case to the Supreme Court,
where it was argued in 1889. Ever
Since that time both sides have anxious-
ly awaited the decision, which came
down on Monday affirming Judge Krebs’
decree. The amount involved is about
$15,000.
AN ENTERPRISING FIrM.—The
Daily News was somewhat mistaken in
saying that McCalmont & Co. have en-
tered into the manufacture of fertilizers,
but it is true that they are having high-
grade fertilizers made for them under
their own special brand. This firm has
for years been known all over this and
adjoining counties as one of the most re-
liable firms, in all its dealings, that
could be found in a month’s travel.
This is because the men connected * with
the firm are all mer. of practical expe-
rience and good judgment and they use
their knowledge to the interest of their
patrons,
Mr. Shortlidge is a student of the best
methods of agriculture, always studying
the needs of the farmer and the demands
of the soil 1n various localities, hence he
runs his business with intelligence
and success, When he sells a
man a wagon or any piece of ag-
ricultural machinery he sells it to him
as the best that can be had and the one
best suited to these localities. When
he sells seed, he sells it as good, ‘clean
seed because he has given it personal ex-
amination and knows; when he sells
lime or coal he knows just’ what he is
selling and the purchaser always finds it
as represented.
And now he is bringing his practical
knowledge into play in supplying a
fertilizer that he guarantees to be
superior to any sold in Central Penn-
sylvania, and when he says so it can be
depended on that itis, too, and at a
price very reasonable compared with
that of fertilizers of an inferior grade.
The firm will also keep salt which they
recommend as a good fertilizer and
which they sell at a very low figure.
When in need of a fertilizer or salt call
on this firm and see what they have.
A SrLipPERY HoRSE TRADER. —A
man with several aliases arrived in
Philipsburg, one day last week, with a
horse and buggy and put up at the

——Mr. and Mrs. Andrew Morrison,
of Williamsport, suffered a sad afilic-
tion in the recent death of a bright little
daughter, Mary Debora, who was taken
off in the beauty and innocence of her
childhood by one of those virulent
throat diseases that are so destructive to
children. The remains were brought to
this place for interment. Mr. Morrison
is the son of Capt. John H. Morrison,
lately decensed, and | of the venerable
Mrs. Morrison, of Spring street. His
wife was Miss Méese, sister of merchant
John Meese of this place. When the
parents returned to their stricken home
at Williamsport, they had the heartfelt
sympathy of their Bellefonte friends. |

CHORAL SERVICES.—Instead of the
regular service next Sunday evening

of Wm. L. Meyer, will render a num-
ber of choice sacred selections interspers-
ed with a few of the good old stand"
ard hymns prefaced with suitable re
marks by the pastor, Rev. M. O
Noll, regarding the origin, time and
circumstances connected with the writ-
ing of said hymns. The service will
be one that can be enjoyed by all loverg
of good music, as the reputation of
Mr: Meyer is sufficient gaurantee that
the music will be fine. An invitation
is extended to all. The services will be-
gin promptly at 7. p. m.
A PROFITABLE INVENTION, —MTr.
J. M. Meyers, of Rochester, N. Y.; in-
ventor of the Meyers’ Ballot Machine, |
has made a nice thing of his invention.
A company to manufacture the ma-
chines has been formed under the title
of the “The Meyers American Ballot
Machine Company.”
The directors named in the certificate
of incorporation are George C. Buell,
Sr., Edward Harris, H. 8. Greenleaf, I.
P. Ross, Henry C. Brewster, Charles R.
King, George F. Yeomans, Harvey D.
Gordon and J. H. Meyers. The remain-
ing stockholders include a number of
prominent wealthy men, among whom
are H. A. Strong, E.S. Curtis, Chauncey
B. Woodworth, Henry Michaels, W. C,
Barry, George Ellwanger and A. S.
Hamilton. The new company pays to
Mr. Myers $250,000 for his patent, and
heis also one of the Directore of the
company.
Horse SToLEN.—A horse was stolen
on Monday at Howard, Centre county,
from one Thomas Butler by one Samuel
Watkins, who gave his name as Walker
and who had been working tor Butler
for a couple of days. Watkins brought
the horse to this city and traded it to
Julius Wiedener for another horse and
some boot money, Mr. W., of course,
never even dreaming that the horse was
astolen one. Watkins then sold the
Wiedener horse to Bernau, the butcher,
for $3.00. The thief was arrested by
officers Keller and Myers in Bellefonte
and was given a hearing before Justice
of the Peace, John B. Linn, and in de-
fault of bail ‘was committed to jail for
Court. Butler is now happy in the re-
possession of his horse, as is likewise Mr.
Wiedener, who had to pay three dollars,
however, to get his horse back from
Bernau. Wiedener is therefore out of
the boot money and the three dollars
paid to Bernau for the return of his
“eritter.”’— Lock Haven Democrat.

A Worp For THE CLARA PRICE
MonumeNT.—The Pittsburg Times of
Saturday contained the following :
Mrs. Mary Boggs, of Monongahela
City, has written the 7imes concern-
ing the Clara Price monument fund.
Miss Price was murdered some months
ago by Alfred = Andrews. Mrs. Boggs
says :
Ido think Clara Price is as deserv.
ing of a monument as any one who bas
sacrificed life for any great cause. She
gave her life in defense of her honor
What more could she do? I will inclose
Please forward it to those who
have charge of the fund; or, if you
think it would be a success, why not
start a fund for this purpose? You have
done so much in other ways,
To quote the words of Miss Smith,
who wrote the Zimes some weeks ago,
I, too, can say: “It is a sal but well
known fact that there is scarcely a town
or village, however sm..l, but has at
least one ‘poor unfortunate’ outcast, who
must forever bear the cold world’s
scorn, and 1 feel that some befitting
memorial to this poor murdered gir]
might be the means of saving many
feet from straying into the paths of sin,
rather than enter that to prevent which
Clara Price gave up her young life.”
The contribution of Mrs. Boggs has
been forwarded to W. B. Potter, Karth-
aus, Pa., who is secretary of the monu,_
ment fund, and to whom all money
should be sent. Mr. Potter writes the
Times that the fund is still less than
$300, but it has been decided to go ahead
and contract for a monument.
——Philipsburg is to have an overall
factory. In spesking of it the Jour-
ual says: “It will be started on a
smaller scale than some now in opera
tion in the hope of building up a trade
that will warrant the stockholders in
branching out. We are not at liberty
to-day to give full details respecting
the enterprise, and to publish the name
ot those who are interested in the
project. Two of the gentlemen who
will likely be connected with it are
from a distance, and a couple others
are residents of Philipsburg. We cer-
tainly hope that the affair may prove
a big thing to the stockholders and to
the community.”
——The body of Simon Broch, the

minutes. It was thought at one time
that it would save his life, but in his ef-
forts to get astride of i* he lost his life.

not being able to swim, soon sank be-
neath the water’s surface and was seen

CurriNg Dowy A Frag PoLe.—The
{ following item has been sent us for pub-
lieation :
Much excitement was caused at Port
Matilda last week by Geo. T. Jones, de-
| Spite the protestations of eitizens, cutting
down a flag pole which was not endan-
gering persons on the highway or in
anyway affording any excuse for this
act of vandalism, except for personal
spite toward a neighbor who has attend-
some years on all public occasions.
During the Cleveland and Blaine cam-
paign this pole was erected by Jones
and some few others to prevent the Dem-
ocrats from putting up one in honor of
Cleveland. On the opposite corner a
large Blaine pole was erected and dedi-
cated with appropriate ceremonies, af-
ter which this one was put up by a small
number of Republicans headed By
Jones. The other corners of the public
square being owned by Repulicans, of
course this magnanimous act prevented
the Democrats from putting up a pole,
As the party feeling passed away the
Blaine pole was cut down and it was Ce-
cided to allow the other one to remain
as a flag pole, and a fine flag was pur.
chased by the citizens for the purpose of
display. Tmagine their surprise when
Jones, who is a great G. A. R. man, a
howling, rip roaring Republican, and all
that, began to grumble on Decoration
day when his neighbor brought out
the flag and unfurled it to the breeze as
usual. They knew of his petty hate of
this neighbor, but were more than in-
dignant when a few days after he ap-
peared with an ax and felled it to the
ground. Out on such patriotism. No
wonder his G. A. R.2comrades and the
old soldiers are boiling with indignation.
CHILDRENS’ DAY IN THE PRESBY
TERIAN SuNDAY ScrHooL.—The chil-
dren of the Presbyterian Sunday Schoo]
of Bellefonte had their day last Sunday,
and it was a very pleasant, entertaining
and instructive one. The ehurch in
which the exercises took place was pre-
pared for the occasion with beautiful
floral decorations, the pulpit and other
parts of the interior of the church being
greens. In the morning Rev. Dr. Lau-
rie preached a sermon especially intend-
ed for the children, which received the
close attention not only of the little ones
but of alliwho were present.
The services that gave the day its ecs-
pecial character as Childrend’ Day,
came off in the afternoon and were di-
rected in excellent style by J. W. Gep-
hart, esq., the superintendent. He was
assisted by Mr. Isaac Mitchell, who in a
short address spoke of the work of for-
eign missions ; D. F. Fortney, esq., who
described the rapid progress of Sunday.
school work in the West, and Mr. J. C
Weaver, who spoke of the Sunday
School in connection with the colored
men of the South. Mr. Laurie made
some practical remarks on the necessity
of funds to advance the work of the
church and the Sunday school. The
music was dehghtful. The large choir
that furnished the musical feature of the
occasion was composed of some of the
best singers of the town, and its singing
was charmingly supplemented by the
silvery tones of the cornet played by Mr
Lenodore Zane, of theglass works. Miss
Mary Blanchard’s infant class, consist.
ing of about sixty little ones, also took
part in the exercises, singing in a man-
ner that was creditable to themselves and
to the teacher who had charge of them.
There was a song service in the even-
ing, the choir, among other music, ren-
dering three voluntaries which were
greatly enjoyed by those who heard
them. Mr. Laurie closed the evening
with an entertaining and instructive ad-
dress.
JouN M. WARD'S DIFFICULTY WITH
